Wheat Ms2 confers complete male sterility without penalizing other traits
Male sterility is a useful trait in traditional and hybrid wheat breeding. A dwarf male-sterile wheat line that harbors two tightly linked dominant traits, one, the dwarf gene Rht-D1c (originally called Rht10), a...

Development and validation of gene-specific KASP markers for YrAS2388R conferring stripe rust resistance in wheat
Wheat stripe rust, caused by Puccinia striiformis f. sp. tritici (Pst), is a destructive fungal disease with a significant economic impact. Aegilops tauschii, the D-genome progenitor of wheat (Triticum aestivum, ...

High-resolution genome-wide association study and genomic prediction for disease resistance and cold tolerance in wheat
High-resolution genome-wide association study (GWAS) facilitated QTL fine map** and candidate gene identification, and the GWAS based genomic prediction models were highly predictive and valuable in wheat ge...

Overexpression of wheat α-mannosidase gene TaMP impairs salt tolerance in transgenic Brachypodium distachyon
The TaMP gene from wheat encodes an α-mannosidase induced by salt stress that functions as negative regulator of salt tolerance in plants.

The anther-specific CYP704B is potentially responsible for MSG26 male sterility in barley
Plant male sterility is a valuable trait in breeding and hybrid seed production. The barley male-sterility gene msg26 was mapped to a 0.02-cM region that anchors to a 506-kb low-quality assembly between two cleav...

Open AccessExtracellular anti-angiogenic proteins augment an endosomal protein trafficking pathway to reach mitochondria and execute apoptosis in HUVECs
Classic endocytosis destinations include the recycling endosome returning to the plasma membrane or the late endosome (LE) merging with lysosomes for cargo degradation. However, the anti-angiogenic proteins an...

Article
Open AccessFine map** of barley locus Rps6 conferring resistance to wheat stripe rust
Barley resistance to wheat stripe rust has remained effective for a long time and, therefore, the genes underlying this resistance can be a valuable tool to engineer durable resistance in wheat...

New cis-regulatory elements in the Rht-D1b locus region of wheat
Fifteen gene-containing BACs with accumulated length of 1.82-Mb from the Rht-D1b locus region were sequenced and compared in detail with the orthologous regions of rice, sorghum, and maize. Our results show that

Characterizing the walnut genome through analyses of BAC end sequences
Persian walnut (Juglans regia L.) is an economically important tree for its nut crop and timber. To gain insight into the structure and evolution of the walnut genome, we constructed two bacterial artificial chro...

Article
The compact Brachypodium genome conserves centromeric regions of a common ancestor with wheat and rice
The evolution of five chromosomes of Brachypodium distachyon from a 12-chromosome ancestor of all grasses by dysploidy raises an interesting question about the fate of redundant centromeres. Three independent but...

Article
Open AccessAnnotation and comparative analysis of the glycoside hydrolase genes in Brachypodium distachyon
Glycoside hydrolases cleave the bond between a carbohydrate and another carbohydrate, a protein, lipid or other moiety. Genes encoding glycoside hydrolases are found in a wide range of organisms, from archea t...

Article
Rapid evolution and complex structural organization in genomic regions harboring multiple prolamin genes in the polyploid wheat genome
Genes encoding wheat prolamins belong to complicated multi-gene families in the wheat genome. To understand the structural complexity of storage protein loci, we sequenced and analyzed orthologous regions cont...
